The Broadway revival of Mary Chase’s Harvey, now at the Roundabout Theatre Company’s Studio 54, will play a special added benefit performance at 7pm on its closing day, Sunday, August 5. The production is directed by Scott Ellis


Each ticket purchased will support Education@Roundabout which brings over 3,500 New York City public school students to matinees each season.


The Pulitzer Prize=winning play centers on the charming and kind Elwood P. Dowd, who has only one character flaw: an unwavering friendship with a 6-foot-tall, invisible white rabbit named Harvey.

The cast features Jim Parsons (Elwood P. Dowd), Jessica Hecht (Veta Louise Simmons), Charles Kimbrough (William R. Chumley, M.D.), Larry Bryggman (Judge Omar Gaffney), Peter Benson (E.J. Lofgren), Tracee Chimo (Myrtle Mae Simmons), Holley Fain (Ruth Kelly, R.N.), Carol Kane (Betty Chumley), Angela Paton (Mrs. Ethel Chauvenet), Rich Sommer (Duane Wilson), and Morgan Spector (Lyman Sanderson, M.D.).
